We caught a quick glimpse of The Captain’s face in ABC’s season preview following last Sunday’s premiere, but the below photo is the first full and clear look at Once Upon a Time‘s most anticipated new character. Plus, we have some fresh details about his introduction.
We’ll meet Hook (Colin O’Donoghue) in the Oct. 21 episode, which is titled “The Crocodile” (nice). We will see Hook’s origin story. And that’s why this photo, like the glimpse in Sunday’s preview, still doesn’t reveal Hook in all his glory. Because this is a shot of the famous pirate before … certain things happen … and he becomes the man we all know. Check it out, below. And see yesterday’s interview with the Once Upon showrunners on how Emma is shaking up fairy tale land.

Captain Hook is jumping on board Once Upon a Time full time.
ABC and producers just upgraded Colin O’Donoghue to a series regular for the season’s “back nine” hours — even before his character’s first episode has aired.
The Irish actor (The Rite) was originally signed for a recurring role on the Sunday night hit fantasy drama. Given the swooning fan reaction to our first photo of Hook posted this morning, we can’t say we’re surprised by this decision. Guess the producers must have liked what they were seeing from O’Donoghue on set too. We’ll meet Hook in the Oct. 21 episode, which is titled “The Crocodile.” Last season, producers similarly upgraded Emilie de Ravin’s Belle from a recurring role to series regular.
